particular department, the company had 54,000 equivalent units of production with respect to
conversion costs in March. There were 7,500 units in the department's beginning work-in-process
inventory, two-thirds complete with respect to conversion costs. During March, 52,500 units were
started and 50,000 were completed and transferred out of the department. What was the ending work-
in-process inventory in the department?
A. Consisted of 5,000 units.
B. Consisted of 2,500 units.
C. 65% complete with respect to conversion costs.
D. 40% complete with respect to conversion costs.
T. out + WIP e.i. = 30,000 + 90,000 - 20,000 = 100,000 * 100% + 20,000 * 60% = 112,000 units
What were the equivalent units of production for conversion costs in the Painting Department for
April?
A. 67,300 units.
B. 68,820 units.
C. 70,520 units.
D. 63,900 units.
The Fitting Department's production report indicates that the cost per equivalent unit for conversion
cost for March was $8.24.
How much conversion cost was assigned to the units transferred out of the Fitting Department during
March?
A. $482,287.20.
B. $502,640.00.
C. $523,240.00.
D. $561,144.00.

complete with respect to conversion costs. The November 1 work-in-process inventory consisted of
8,000 units, 50% complete with respect to conversion costs. A total of 25,000 units were completed
and transferred out of the department during the month. What was the number of units started during

19. Harker Company uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. The first processing
department, the Welding Department, started the month with 16,000 units in its beginning work-
in-process inventory that were 40% complete with respect to conversion costs. The conversion cost
in this beginning work-in-process inventory was $29,440. An additional 59,000 units were started
into production during the month, and 61,000 units were completed in the Welding Department and
transferred to the next processing department. There were 14,000 units in the ending work-in-process
inventory of the Welding Department that were 10% complete with respect to conversion costs. A
total of $246,400 in conversion costs were incurred in the department during the month.

— Pistä poskeesi!
Ja hän kääntyi valoa kohti, riensi portaita ylös ja tuli pihalle, jolla
talon palvelusväki hyöri kuumeisesti juosten edes ja takaisin,
ikäänkuin olisi sillä ollut tavattoman tärkeä ja kiireinen asia
toimitettavana. Lo Ta jäi talon eteen seisomaan, nojasi sauvaansa ja
puhutteli palvelusväkeä huutamalla, mutta kohteliaasti.
— Munkki, mitä asiaa on teillä näin myöhäiseen aikaan tähän
taloon? — kysyttiin häneltä.
— Minä en pidä sitä niin suurena asiana, jos syönkin lihaa ja juon
väkeviä juomia, — arveli Syvähenki, — ja sanoakseni teille totuuden,
minä en ole pahoin nirsu mitä viinaan tulee, olkoonpa se sitten
puhdasta tai sekotettua, valkoista tai värikästä.
— Minun täytyy pyytää teitä, — virkkoi nyt vanha Liu, — ensi yön
nukkumaan eräässä sivurakennuksessa ja pysyä siellä ulos
tulematta, vaikka kuulisittekin melua ja meteliä ulkoa.
— Minä olen koko ajan luullut, — höpisi hän itsekseen, — että tuo
munkki tulisi jotenkin käyttämään järjenkeinoa eikä väkivaltaa
saadakseen rosvon luopumaan aikeestaan. Mutta mitä merkitsi tämä
avunhuuto? Ukko otti lyhdyn ja huusi hämmentyneenä
rosvokuninkaan saattojoukon koolle mennäkseen sen kanssa taloon
katsomaan, mitä siellä oikein tapahtui.
